i use to be in to onkyo untill my last onkyou had some issues do to their famous heating problemafter i research the pioneer elite line and their digital D3 amplifier this unit SC55 is loaded whith lot of sorround options for audio and videothe video qualaty is superb and the air play and remote aplication are exellent greate a/v receivers my congratulation to the pioneer engineeres

Moved back to pioneer after a couple denons. The last 3310 died after a couple of years.

It took a while to get the sound adjusted after MCACC, but I am really pleased now.I have a 7.1 setup in large room and it does great.

1) nice power2) great ipad/iphone application3) great network features. It has even started me back listening to loseless audios.4) 9.2 supported. I even added 2 front heights and really like it.5) video quality. I run everything thru the avr and it looks better than my other avrs.

So, now I have a 9.1 setup.

Cons are minor but know pioneer 'features':1) no volume adjustments seen on osd2) mcacc doesn't do much with subwoofer. This doesn't hurt me cause my sub. blends in fine.
